Tour Summary
Dawn at the Taj Mahal is an experience
of a lifetime.
When the sun rises behind the Taj Mahal, casting pink and
orange hues over the world's most famous monument to love,
you will understand the magical spell India casts on her travellers.
Rajasthan is home to some of the country's most impressive
sites and most hospitable people. Start your journey in Delhi

and Old Delhi's winding alleys. An exciting rickshaw ride
is the best way for you to come face to face with the locals;
colourful sari stalls, fragrant spice markets and the occasional
lumbering elephant make for a fascinating backdrop! And then
on to Rajasthan where you're destined to discover windswept
deserts, Maharajahs palaces, and a history as old as time.
